Why Sales Training Doesn't Work

The Brooks Group

Sales Training won't work if sales managers don't support the effort. Here's an example: I just returned from working with a client’s sales team and (for the second time) took them through one day of manager coaching and two days of IMPACT Sales Training … again. .
